In November, the Hockey Hall of Fame will be inducting a plethora of players, and the Toronto Maple Leafs and the Carolina Hurricanes will be helping to celebrate.
The Toronto Maple Leafs are a team that has endless appeal, and there is no denying that they are one of the most popular NHL franchises ever.
Furthermore, the team is located in Toronto, the biggest and most lucrative city in all of Canada.
It is also the location of the Hockey Hall of Fame. With that in mind, it should come as no surprise that the NHL would want Hall of Fame celebrations to run through the city.
Hall of Fame Game will be Toronto Maple Leafs vs. the Carolina Hurricanes
Recently, Forbes revealed that the Toronto Maple Leafs and Scotiabank Arena will host the 2025 NHL Hall of Fame Game.
The game will take place on November 9th, and their opponent will be the Carolina Hurricanes.
Per Forbes:
The annual celebration of the latest inductees into the Hockey Hall of Fame will take place from Nov. 8-10 in Toronto.
Special events will include the Hockey Hall of Fame game between the Carolina Hurricanes and Toronto Maple Leafs at Scotiabank Arena on Sunday, Nov. 9 and the induction ceremony in the Great Hall on Monday, Nov. 10.
With Seattle Kraken president Ron Francis now serving as the chair of the Hall of Fame's selection committee, this year's class features eight inductees.
The six players are Zdeno Chara, Duncan Keith, Alexander Mogilny and Joe Thornton along with Jennifer Botterill and Brianna Decker. In the builder category, general manager Daniele Sauvageau of the PWHL's Montreal Victoire will become the first woman inducted as a builder.
She goes in alongside longtime Boston University coach Jack Parker.

Will this game be any good? It is way too early to say, although these are two very solid Eastern Conference teams.
If you are a fan of the Leafs, this is definitely a match to have circled on your calendar.
Only time will tell whether or not is has the impact the NHL is hoping for.
